Primordial Star Scripture

```

Long Li had already broken through to the Earth Divine Venerable realm.

When she was in the God King Realm, she was an absolute powerhouse, ranking first on the "God King List" of the Nine Great Divine Institutes, and she was not the least bit afraid to battle Heavenly Divine Venerables.

Now that she had broken through to become an Earth Divine Venerable, her combat power had surged to an inconceivable extent. Her speed alone left countless Heavenly Divine Venerables far behind.

In the blink of an eye, Long Li had traversed tens of millions of miles and returned to the location of the Heaven-reaching Ancient Tree!

Long Li didn't even have time to pay attention to the others nearby; her gaze was immediately drawn to Ye Chen, who was in a state of frenzy under the backlash of the "Blue Extreme Iceflame" and "Heavenly Union Flame."

"Ye Chen!"

At this moment, Long Li couldn't afford to be shy. With a ripple in the void, she appeared right in front of Ye Chen.

The next moment, a vast surge of True Qi gushed from her body, within which formed strands of "Golden Spirit Silk" that wrapped around Ye Chen and the surging backlash flames encasing him.

Then, the petite girl Long Li, who only reached Ye Chen's shoulders, wrapped her arms around his waist and blushed as she glanced at the Heaven-reaching Ancient Tree, focusing on the sealed tree hole at the very bottom near her.

A golden beam of light burst from Long Li's brow, instantly destroying the tree hole's seal that had stopped the other God Kings.

Carrying Ye Chen, Long Li then flew straight into the tree hole and resealed it from inside!

From Long Li's sudden appearance to stopping Ye Chen's backlash fury and carrying him into the tree hole—all of this happened in the span of a flash.

Under the Heaven-reaching Ancient Tree, Yang Yun, Yang Yan, Mu Ling, Mu Xiao, Hong Ming, and Hong Yi, the six individuals, had just seen Long Li hurriedly fly back, only to witness her embracing Ye Chen and flying into the tree hole.

This clearly indicated that Long Li had returned for Ye Chen.

She had come back to save Ye Chen!

To see the usually aloof goddess Long Li embrace Ye Chen without a moment's hesitation shocked the group under the Heaven-reaching Ancient Tree to their very core!

Even though they had previously surmised that Ye Chen and Long Li had a deep relationship, possibly of an intimately close nature,

speculation was, after all, speculation - nothing could compare to witnessing it with their own eyes.

"Long Li she... Long Li she..."

At this point, Yang Yun was trembling with anger.

His affection for Long Li was well-known throughout the Supreme Divine Institute and the other eight Divine Institutes—a fact known to countless warriors. Yet, he had difficulty even striking up a few words with her.

Now, Long Li had taken the initiative to embrace Ye Chen. Clearly, Yang Yun was nothing more than an ordinary, insipid person in her eyes, while Ye Chen evidently stood out.

Yang Yun's heart utterly shattered. He knew Long Li's nature: unless she was close and fond of someone, she would never act in such a manner. This surely meant Long Li's heart was already taken, and he had no chance of winning her affections.

How could he not be utterly heartbroken?

And as for Ye Chen, who had earned Long Li's tender concern, Yang Yun was filled with extreme jealousy and hatred!

He envied the closeness Ye Chen shared with Long Li and despised the great fortune Ye Chen had in love.

If not for the fear of dying by the hands of the "Blue Extreme Iceflame" like Qin Feng, Yang Yun would have killed Ye Chen on the spot!

"This Ye Chen, I must kill him, he must be killed!"

"That 'Blue Extreme Iceflame' is incredibly bizarre, and I have no means to control it right now, so it's not wise to make a move. However, it's clear that even this divine object 'Blue Extreme Iceflame' is not something Ye Chen can wield easily, otherwise it wouldn't backfire so terribly."

"I can't act personally, but I can get someone else to do it. Without the aid of the 'Blue Extreme Iceflame,' Ye Chen is just a seven-tribulation True God; killing him would be as easy as crushing an ant!"

"Now that Ye Chen has killed Qin Feng, the people of Divine Dragon Mountain will not let him off easily. Divine Dragon Mountain is one of the four major forces of the Divine Kingdom; its strength is nothing less than that of the four duke's mansions. Just let the news of him killing Qin Feng spread, and Divine Dragon Mountain will definitely flay Ye Chen layer by layer!"

Malignant schemes flickered through Yang Yun's mind.

Every time he thought of Ye Chen holding a beauty like Long Li in his arms, his teeth clenched with hatred.

Yang Yan, beside him, harbored similarly venomous thoughts as Yang Yun.

Yang Yan had even thought of several individuals who could act on his behalf to deal with Ye Chen without him lifting a finger!

As for Mu Ling, Mu Xiao, Hong Ming, and Hong Yi, they were too preoccupied to wonder about Yang Yun and Yang Yan's thoughts. Their minds were focused on one fact: their acquaintance, Ye Chen, was indeed so intimately connected with Long Li!

Long Li really did treat Ye Chen differently!

"Once this news gets out, it's likely that the entire Divine Kingdom and all of the Nine Great Divine Institutes will know of Ye Chen, our friend."

"It's uncertain whether this will be a blessing or a curse for Ye Chen."

Mu Ling pondered.

Among the ten God Kings who entered the Nine Suns Ancient Land, Long Li had carried Ye Chen into the tree hole, and Qin Feng had been executed.

The remaining eight—Yang Yun, Yang Yan, Mu Ling, Mu Xiao, Hong Ming, and Hong Yi—all stood under the Heaven-reaching Ancient Tree, watching the tree hole where Long Li and Ye Chen disappeared.

And the last two, following Long Li and also flying back toward the Heaven-reaching Ancient Tree, the sisters Zhu Qianqian and Zhu Qingqing, had finally flown back to the vicinity of the Heaven-reaching Ancient Tree as well.

```

Both of them had already seen from afar the scene of Long Li holding Ye Chen in her arms.

At this moment, the two women were incredibly disturbed, "Little sister Long Li... she actually got so intimate with Ye Chen!"

Both were Upper God Kings, whose realms far surpassed Ye Chen's, but they harbored a hidden fondness for Ye Chen, who had matched Long Li in the art of fire control during cultivation.

However, seeing their little sister Long Li so close with Ye Chen let them know that there was no longer any possibility between them and Ye Chen.

...

Inside the prohibition tree hole at the very bottom of the Heaven-reaching Ancient Tree.

This was a vast and special treasure space.

Initially, Ye Chen came here to enter this tree hole at the very bottom of the Heaven-reaching Ancient Tree using the secret map obtained from the "Golden Light Sons" of the Golden Light Divine City.

Instead, he accidentally got sucked into the Bottomless Fire Cave, where he encountered Long Li and got involved with her in that incident.

After exiting the Bottomless Fire Cave, before Ye Chen had a chance to further explore this tree hole at the bottom, he was attacked by Qin Feng, and following Qin Feng's death faced the backlash of the "Heavenly Union Flame" and the "Blue Extreme Iceflame."

Ye Chen could never have anticipated that he would enter this tree hole at the bottom in this manner.

It was Long Li who had carried him in.

At this point, although the backlash forces were temporarily contained by Long Li, all of Ye Chen's fighting strength was completely suppressed by the backlash force, and his Divine Sense was becoming weaker.

Ye Chen's consciousness retained only a sliver of clarity, enough to sense everything happening outside.

"Ye Chen..."

Long Li looked at Ye Chen tightly wrapped in the Golden Spirit Silk, her beautiful eyes flashed a trace of distress as she saw Ye Chen in a wretched state from the backlash.

"The backlash of the Heavenly Union Flame can only be resolved by re-stabilizing the flame."

"Could it be that I have to... have to do that with him again..."

Long Li thought of a way to help Ye Chen out of the crisis; even her pretty face couldn't help but blush at the thought.

Long Li's beautiful eyes showed a struggling expression. She did not reject Ye Chen, but she was also unwilling to actively use such a method to help Ye Chen.

If she had not already been intimate with Ye Chen, she would not even dare to think of such a method, let alone consider it.

But without this method, she was completely unable to help Ye Chen deal with the damage from the backlash force.

This made Long Li utterly hesitant and struggling.

Finally, after what seemed like the time it took to brew a pot of tea, when she saw the Golden Spirit Silk she had stimulated gradually unable to suppress the increasingly violent backlash force on Ye Chen's body, when she saw Ye Chen, whose Divine Sense was becoming less conscious due to the strengthening backlash force, involuntarily showing a pained expression, Long Li finally made up her mind.

Long Li bit her pearly teeth hard, her body emitting streaks of golden light that completely enveloped her and Ye Chen within a golden sphere.

Half an hour later.

The golden light dispersed, and Long Li's figure was revealed once more.

By then, Long Li had redressed, appearing as if nothing had happened, just like before. But the flush on her face indicated what had just transpired.

Long Li glanced at Ye Chen, whose breathing had gradually steadied and whose backlash force had completely disappeared, now fallen into deep sleep, and her face reddened again.

Then, Long Li took out a white jade tablet, pressed it against her fair forehead for a moment, recording some words she wanted to say to Ye Chen, and placed the jade tablet beside him.

Afterward, Long Li took one last deep look at Ye Chen, then passed through the prohibitions of the tree hole space and flew back outside the Heaven-reaching Ancient Tree.

Not long after Long Li left, Xiaojiu also flew out from Ye Chen's Ice Snow Jade Pendant.

Xiaojiu glanced in the direction where Long Li had departed, then at the sleeping Ye Chen, and murmured, "This young girl is really good to Ye Chen. She actually helped Ye Chen by... with him again..."

Thinking of the method Long Li used to solve Ye Chen's backlash force, Xiaojiu's face couldn't help but redden.

Having seen Long Li's actions before, Xiaojiu was aware of Long Li's thoughts. Embarrassed by the method, Xiaojiu immediately isolated the Ice Snow Jade Pendant completely.

Still, Xiaojiu knew that Long Li had saved Ye Chen and was aware of everything that had transpired.

"It seems that she really does like Ye Chen a bit, and probably she doesn't even realize it,"

"What a pity Ye Chen already has his favorite, Jiang Yao. It's uncertain what the outcome with this young girl will be..."

Xiaojiu sighed, looking again at the sleeping Ye Chen.

"Ye Chen has fallen into sleep to recuperate from some of the earlier damage caused by the backlash force; it shouldn't be long before he awakens."

"Once he's awake, I should really discuss this 'Blue Extreme Iceflame' with him thoroughly. We can't always rely on Long Li to save him like this..."

Xiaojiu mumbled to herself.

Before long, just as Xiaojiu had predicted, Ye Chen awoke from his deep slumber.
